As we're gearing up for the official start of CES 2011, some of the world's most important manufacturers have already started going official with the devices they'll showcase on this important occasion, one of the first being Lenovo, who's just announced its ThinkPad X120e, the first commercial laptop to feature an AMD Fusion E-Series Accelerated Processing Unit (APU).
The
ultraportable X120e looks small, but it now packs an even more powerful punch for business productivity, as it integrates an AMD Fusion E-Series APU that gives users 65 percent faster graphics performance, which speeds up Web searches, page loads and running business applications.
At the same time, the X120e gives users longer battery life – up to 30 percent longer – for more than six hours and meets Energy Star 5.0 specifications.
Additionally, the X120e comes with an HDMI port for projecting content on another monitor or a TV screen, while also featuring an 11.6 inch screen and a full-size keyboard that give users plenty of room to work comfortably.
The contemporary ThinkPad keyboard features a progressively clean look while retaining the same feel of the ThinkPad classic keyboard, while the X120e also includes WiFi and optional Bluetooth and mobile broadband.
“Multimedia elements like audio and video have become important parts of our world, and businesses are embracing this trend in digital content,” said Dilip Bhatia, vice president, ThinkPad Marketing and Product Operations,
Lenovo.
“We’ve optimized the ThinkPad X120e to not only give businesses an excellent experience creating and consuming multimedia content, but we’ve also made key improvements to an area that has plagued laptops: battery life,” Mr. Bhatia added.
The ThinkPad X120e laptop will be available starting with February through Lenovo business partners, the various available models starting under $400, which is quite an OK price point, all things considered.
